VELUX EHF FINAL4 throws off with large opening party

There will be plenty of action, including the appearance of several music and handball stars, surrounding the LANXESS arena, the venue of VELUX EHF FINAL4, on Friday, 31 May.

The climax of the European club handball season, featuring THW Kiel, FC Barcelona Intersport, HSV Hamburg, and Vive Targi Kielce as Europe's top four teams, for the first time throws off with a large opening party to get up to 6,000 handball fans in the right mood before the focus shifts to the semi-finals on Saturday.

The gates will open at 17.30 hrs, and from 18:00 to 19:00 hrs. fans will have the opportunity to have their pictures taken with the coveted VELUX EHF Champions League Trophy.

German handball stars, such as Frank von Behren, Daniel Stephan, and Christian Schwarzer, will also present for autograph sessions.

However, one should also not miss what is happening on the large open-air stage in front of the arena, where the famous Cologne band, Bläck Fööss, as well as Jenna Hoff, Nathalie Dorra, and Ole Soul, all three well-known participants of 'The Voice of Germany', and Robeat, the human beatbox, will rock and entertain the crowd.

The stage will also be the place where for the first time in the history of the VELUX EHF FINAL4 the four teams will be presented to the fans prior to the matches.

Large fireworks at about 22:00 hrs. will form the conclusion of the opening party, which marks a worthy start of this year's VELUX EHF FINAL4.

1,500 tickets have already been sold, so be quick to secure your spot at this grand opening party.

Tickets (7 €, concession 5 €, all of them including a free beverage) can be purchased via the official VELUX EHF FINAL4 website.
